It's really important for a victim to maintain autonomy when dealing with traumatic events. Uber's move should be to contact the victim and ask them what they would like to do and offer them all the information they need to (reasonably) facilitate that in regards to criminal investigation.

- bluntfang 7y agoGiving an option to click a button is not the same as supporting the victim by listening to their concerns and acting appropriately. It's a very inhumane approach to a problem that requires compassion, tact, and awareness.
